The Italian Lawyer (Vittorio FRANZESE, Business & Intellectual Property Lawyer)

We all know the old stories about fake goods in China. But the parallel worlds of intellectual property infringement and anti-counterfeit regulation have changed a great deal over the last decade. In today's episode, I talk with the lawyer Vittorio Franzese to reminisce about what it was like when this cat-and-mouse game was at it's peak. Who were the counterfeiters? What actions could the lawyers take against them? How did the high-profile police raids come about? And what part did the big e-commerce platforms play in all this?

If that wasn't enough, to top it all off, not only do we talk about law courts, we also end up talking about tennis courts. Perfettissimo!

The episode also includes a catch-up interview with Gigi Chang from Season 01 Episode 24. (https://mosaicofchina.com/season-01-episode-24-gigi-chang).
